i would reduce sugar and increase protein and increase water to 5 liters. fruit is good but when you say 10g sugar just pure table sugar? probably not the best

to be expected, my bench is down 50 lbs!!! gotta make sacrifices!! it will be worth it for the stage!

welcome. let me or anyone else know if you need any pointers. you will definitely be able to manage your weight and live a kind life on a clean healthy vegan diet. you can learn ways to do consistent, shorter, and effective workouts and youll build muscle tone which will increase your metabolism. and i can definitely relate to your struggle with binge eating. but i was never able to make myself throw up. i probably would have if the finger thing worked. but now i eat 6 times a day and lift and im losing every week and keeping muscle.

isnt it true that although milk is high in calcium, it absorbs poorly?

nice wheels!

It depends how much you weigh and what your exercise is like, but yes you could probably go lower unless you are a bodybuilder or power lifter. And you can have so much fun with this. Im jealous cause im on a diet i only get 1565 cals a day and it has to be mostly protein....but you have freedom dude! enjoy it! other ideas are sweet potatoes, black beans, red beans, asparagus, almonds, pecans, olive oil, i can prolly think of others if u give me more time.

Yes youll cut out fat but you will also cut out protein significantly but you get the idea of how you can easily figure this out! its easy being vegan and getting protein, stupid stereotypes!

Here's a sample diet for you that I made on myfitnesspal. It wont paste as a neat graph, pm me and i can email it to you. A bti high in fat but you could tweak it.

You could do this easy! I can help! You have acccess to whole foods right??

my legs and arms fall asleep very easily, be it from crossing legs, putting my arm above head while sleeping or sleeping on arm...i do take b12. its more just plain annoying than an issue for me doenst happen if im moving at the gym... def. not an expert.

yeah buddy!!!

Do you know what your macros are?

keep in mind you are building a ton of muscle that you havent had before!!!

Possibly dehydration or kidney disorder. did you see a doctor??

Aw. I'm so sorry.

I can't stand tempeh. Sorry lol.

Awesome work on everything. When you say client what do you mean? I guess I missed what you do...

effing beast

ugh

Ha thank you a little worried tho does that mean my fb page doesnt have the privacy settings for non friends? i thought u could only see two pics which is basically just my avatar if you arent myf riend! ah!!

http://store.veganessentials.com/womens-vegan-bodybuilding--fitness-tank-top--black-p3097.aspx

says its out of stock, it has the back cut out more than the tops you are referring to i believe.

thanks on the biceps, 7.5 more weeks to get that peak right!!!

ive had my bms in the morning mostly, but this am it didnt weigh anything. yeah i try to finish my gallon by end of work day....and my work days vary, some done by 230 some by 8pm...then whatever i get at the gym and my last protein shake is extra. diet cokes and coffee (decaf now) and tea are extra, so is any water added to food or from food like veggies. and yeah i use my water for my shake at meal 2 as well.

I want the workout tank not the fitted

Btw about 5 lbs or more lighter now !

Waiting for the availability of small women's w/o tanks..

I think i recognize that quad at GWU!
